Saving YouTube Videos via New FireFox V14

Hi,
I have been using FireFox 3.6 and Flash player plug in V10 for some
time, and if I wanted to save a YouTube video(s), I know how to save it/them
from the Cache. Note: I have my own technique.

Today I went to YouTube, but I no longer can view videos with my
older Flash plug in. I could not install a newer Flash plug in unless I have
FireFox 4.0 or later. I couldn't find that version at Mozilla's web site so
I downloaded FireFox 14 (newest FireFox). After installing the new FireFox,
I had no trouble downloading/installing the Flash player plug in V11.

I had no trouble viewing a video(s) at YouTube, but now I can
not save the video(s) from the Cache because it is no longer a "single
location", but contains multiple locations. The video is no longer a single
file, but "split" into parts.

I suppose there may be a plug in that would allow me to save a
YouTube video, but I have no clue what it is. Do you know?

Thank You in Advance, John

The Firefox add-on I use is called Easy Youtube Video Downloader 6.2,
and I think this is the homepage: http://www.bestvideodownloader.com/
although I initially found it via Firefox's 'search add-ons' function.

Once you install it and visit a youtube page, it adds a "Download"
button to the page, just below the video. When you click the button,
you get multiple choices of quality and can download just the audio,
or video with audio. It seems to work perfectly.
